A comfortable two-bedroom ground floor apartment in Clavering Court, designed for independent over-55s living. Offered on a 43% shared ownership basis with a monthly rent of £118.22 for the remaining 57%, this home provides an affordable route onto the housing ladder while retaining communal support and facilities.
The apartment features a dual-aspect open-plan lounge/diner with a door onto a paved patio, a fitted kitchen with built-in appliances, two double bedrooms and a wet-room style shower room. Practical details include double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, allocated off-street parking and an estimated EPC rating of C.
Residents benefit from well-tended communal gardens and on-site communal facilities such as a lounge, kitchen and games room, plus bike and mobility scooter storage — useful for socialising and day-to-day convenience. The lease has approximately 115 years remaining and the property is sold leasehold, council tax band A.
Important considerations: the sale is shared ownership (43% share) with ongoing rent payable; the development sits in an area with above-average crime and high deprivation indicators, which may concern some buyers. The apartment is suitable for downsizers or older buyers seeking community amenities and lower upfront cost, but buyers should review shared ownership terms and local area reports before proceeding.
